I am working on a new FX effect for our under development game PATRIA.

 

The effect has to simulate the classic "super bomb" of the shoot’em up games.

 

The idea is to have something "heavy" such us spokes starting from the center of the bomb plus particles simulating heavy dust and smoke…..so far the first components look promising.

 

 

 

 

The effect is created using 36 particles of the same image each having 10 degrees of different inclination for the full 360 degrees,

To better understand, I have modfiied the speed of the particle effect to be slower and show how it works.

 

Now, the remaining parts are the intergration with the PATRIA engine + the other 2 effect’s components.
